That Awkward Moment When Harry Reid Referred to Clarence Thomas as One of “Five White Men”

Senility

If ever there were any doubt that Harry Reid’s brains are made of sand and pudding, let his latest gaffe put it all to rest. While assailing the Supreme Court’s Hobby Lobby ruling (again) on Tuesday and vowing action, the 74-year old mental patient proclaimed, “The one thing we are going to do during this work period, sooner rather than later, is to ensure that women’s lives are not determined by virtue of five white men.”

The mistake Harry made here was that he was trying to play the sexism card, but he accidentally threw the race card in and it mucked the whole thing up. At no point during his breathless commentary did Hopalong Harry realize that he had just referred to Justice Clarence Thomas as a white man.

We’ll cut Senator Reid a break here though, as he may have simply missed one of his feedings at the psych ward.

In related news, Harry is also pushing for swift approval of President Obama’s $3.7 billion dollar funding request to deal with the border crisis. It’s amazing how Democrats are suddenly interested in border security when it means spending a butt-load of money, isn’t it?
